My review of The Lesbiana's Guide to Catholic School by Sonido Reyes 4/5⭐ Gay as hell and absolutely adorable Representations: trello.com/c/poNGrsJF PB: pagebound.co/reviews/1500... GR: www.goodreads.com/review/show/... 💙📚👀 🌈📚 🌶️📚 #BookReview
Cover for the lesbiana's guide to Catholic school. Cover has a block golden yellow background, title and author name are in bright pink with "The Lesbiana's" at the top, curved around a pink window shaped area, and the rest of the title below the window, with the author's name slightly smaller below that. Within the window shape shows a brown-skinned woman with black hair in a braid coming over her right shoulder, big golden hoop earrings, white shirt with 3 buttons undone, and a blue blazer with a gold coloured shield emblem on the chest that's half hidden by the collar. Behind her is a block blue background with yellow lines coming from her, surrounding her. Pink roses line the edges of the window area around her shoulders.

My review of To Our Untamed Core by Sonido Reyes 5/5⭐ Incredible world building and characters, the best I've read of the genre so far. Representations: trello.com/c/pOlWoWsu PB: pagebound.co/reviews/1475... GR: www.goodreads.com/review/show/... 💙📚👀 ⚡️📚 🌈📚 #BookReview #ARCReview
Cover of To Our Untamed Core. A muscular masc figure stands in the middle with their back to us, looking to the right wearing a black tank top, short hair with buzzed sides. On their back is a yellow glowing circle with a red splotch around it, yellow beams pointing downwards coming out of the circle. Flanking either side of the character on the bottom half of the left and right sides are what look like ovals with a maze pattern inside. Above the character, behind their head on the center of the upper half is a pyramid-like structure with a golden sun framing the flat top. Either side of it mostly shrouded in mist are the same structure but smaller. The overall colour palette is dusty browns and deep reds and oranges.

My review of Harbour of Hungry Ghosts by Eliza Chan 5/5⭐ A perfect blend of Chinese and British mythology and cultures! Representations: trello.com/c/VZvUYHOH PB: pagebound.co/reviews/1435... GR: www.goodreads.com/review/show/... 💙📚👀 ⚡️📚 🪐📚 #BookReview
Cover for Harbour of Hungry Ghosts. The title of the book with Eliza's name is bottom middle going halfway up the cover. Framing it on the sides and top half is a mix of white smoke lined with red wrapping around mountains and boats with some of the smoke coming out of a blue and white teapot. Main colours everywhere are blue and white with red accents. The top half of the cover shows a white tiger with black stripes on the left, baring its teeth at a white massive dog-like creature breathing smoke on the right. Between them sits a big stone lion with it's right paw up higher than the left looking ahead with red eyes. To the lions left is a snake wrapped around a sword made out of coins.

My review of Wishbound by Clemency Brown 5/5⭐ Beautifully and thrillingly written, fantastic character arcs! Representations: trello.com/c/kEopMhjU PB: pagebound.co/reviews/1417... GR: www.goodreads.com/review/show/... 💙📚👀 📚🪐 ♿️♾️📚 #BookReview
Cover for the book Wishbound. On the left side of the cover is a girl with tanned skin, curly red hair, wearing a light blue tank top. She has her right arm outstretched with her palm facing up, in the middle of the cover. Around her is a dark blue background, showing mountains and looking like the night sky, it's wavy, met in the middle by the right side.
On the right side is a girl with white skin, brown long and plaited hair, wearing a cream-yellow t-shirt. Her left arm is outstretched but her palm is facing up. On her side, the background is orange-yellow with the skyline of London (the London eye, Big Ben, parliament). Where the yellow background meets the blue is a golden line, occasionally with leaves and small branches branching off of it.

My review of The Nudge by Joseph Fink 4/5⭐ Short, Snappy and Tense! Representations: trello.com/c/DxOnOcXG PB: pagebound.co/reviews/1316... GR: www.goodreads.com/review/show/... 💙📚👀 🩸📚 #BookReview
Cover for The Nudge by Joseph Fink. Cover has a background which fades from beige to a slight pink, until about the bottom quarter which is black. At the top is the name of the book in block red, below it is a pair of eyes, lines coming out from them, surrounding them. Below the eyes, sitting on the black, is a house. The house is very winding and seemingly makes no sense. There's a basement, many rooms and corridors that don't seem to match up to anywhere. At the very bottom is the author's name

Cover for the book Deephaven. Title is across the middle-top curved upwards in the middle in block capitals, orange-yellow colour. Behind it spanning the whole cover is what looks like the front of a mansion, above it looming over the roof is some kind of black monster with long strands of hair and piercing blue eyes. Most of the cover is taken up by a shot looking through a doorway at a person stood in a spotlight, holding a lit candle. They've got short black hair, a long orange-brown coat, white button up shirt, black trousers and black shoes. Their stance is like they're looking around hesitantly. The sky is a green-ish colour behind the monster and there's whispers of fog around the bottom corners.

Cover of Lucky Day by Chuck Tingle. Overall cover is a chaotic horror version of a king playing card. A multi coloured king is on the top and bottom of the cover. Top king is facing towards the left and has a white sword going through his head from the back, with a blue iris eyeball dripping with blood on the end. The sword for the top king is held by an amputated white hand, facing forwards, with the only the middle finger up, however it is disconnected from the hand and looking as if it was flying upwards. The hand has pink nail polish. The top king has white skin, green hair, blue and purple crown and a purple shirt. Crown has rabbits on the spikes on the crown, spikes going through their eyes. The top king is also on fire along the bottom of him.
The bottom king is flipped upside down and facing towards the right and has a sword going into the back of his skull (he has not skin on his face) but it doesn't come out of the front. Instead, there are 4 purple worm-like things protruding from his skull, one out the mouth, one out the visible eye socket, and 2 coming from the other side of the skull. The sword is held by another amputated hand, all fingers gripped around the hilt, with green nail polish. He has 1 golden tooth, towards the front of the mouth, blue hair, green shirt and a reddish pink and purple crown, the spikes topped with 4 leaf clovers. Blood is along the bottom of the bottom king, dripping upwards from the sword in the back of his skull.

Between the 2 kings is the title of the book and the authors name, at a slight slant.

It depicts a circular alien ship crash landing near the santa monica pier, leaving trails of smoke behind it. In the foreground, five teenagers stand on the beach pointing at it.
